About this section

Perched high above a breathtaking coastal landscape, this stunning 1.0565 hectare lifestyle section offers a rare opportunity to secure covenant-free land with genuine freedom. For those who have spent time searching, it becomes immediately clear how uncommon it is to find a property of this scale and position where you can build exactly what you want, whether that is a modest retreat, a substantial coastal home, or simply hold as a land bank for the future. The elevated site enjoys sweeping 180-degree panoramic views across Whangārei Harbour, stretching from One Tree Point down through Waipu and Mangawhai, out to distant island chains. Iconic landmarks including Mount Manaia, Bream Head, and the Hen and Chicks complete the outlook. An exceptional setting, just ten minutes from the Parua Bay village. www.rwwhangarei.co.nz/WHC39093
